You are one of the Nizari Order's fedais, an assassin who would do anything to execute the leader's order, including sacrificing his own life. And this time your leader, Sabbah, wants the Seljuk Prince of Rudkhan Castle removed. All an assassin needs, is a dagger and a cunning plan.

Congratulations on the release, and thanks for giving me the chance to betatest this.

The game is funny, yet serious, historical, yet of myth, hand-painted and beautiful. I hope it is played by many, as it deserves.  (nod)

Thank you Jon. I'm honored by your contribution. Now I realize why abortion should be legalized, cause it's not fun to be pregnant for so long.

Congratulations on the release, a fine game indeed!

Found a minor bug :
Spoiler
When looking at the book with the symbols in the library
and looking at the cloth with the symbols TWICE to compare the symbols,
there is no way to return to the book, you will get stuck looking at the cloth.
Nothing gamebreaking, though....
i am totally stuck at finding some tinder for the hearth......

Thank you Ian. I'll try to sort it out.
Spoiler
Listen to what the librarian has to say! And don't forget pressing tab button, just in case you miss it!

EDIT: I tried it three times, and still I can get back to book ???

EDit 2: Now I understand what you mean, thanks Ian!

Thanks Lapsking,
I am afraid that this might be another bug :
Spoiler
I was always sure that I have to use the shears to cut off a page from
one of the books. Guess this would be the tinder I need.
The problem is: I have no book in my inventory and
cannot take another from the shelf in the magician's room nor can I
remove the book I placed in the library...

@Ian Aloser

No, that's not a bug!
Spoiler
You can't mess with Mystic's or Sex-slave's books, as you promised to them (Imagining that you are still moral in your last few hours of life on the way to "heaven"). There are other books to mess with though!

I'm uploading a new version for Windows and Linux, after fixing the bug you reported. I appreciate it.

I completed this game and I really enjoyed it. I want to leave some comments:

Graphics, sound and immersion: I usually prefer to see a character walking around the screen and doing things as well as animations, but somehow the art in this game is just so well-done that the experience was immersive notwithstanding.

Story, Puzzles and Pacing: this is the hardest part to accomplish because one never knows how the player is going to respond while playing but this game absolutely nailed it. The background history is fascinating and the puzzles unfold at a perfect pace while playing. The puzzles are an excellent variety of inventory puzzles and dialogue puzzles and the difficulty is just at that level where you can solve almost all of them just by using a bit of thinking and intuition. I had to ask for some hints for a few puzzles but I was able to solve almost everything on my own.

It's clear that a lot of effort went into the game and the result is amazing.
